Which outcome results when extremely high mass occurs in stellar nucleosynthesis?

💡 Explanation

Iron production stops stellar nucleosynthesis because increasing atomic mass past iron decreases the average binding energy per nucleon. Therefore, fusion becomes endothermic rather than exothermic past iron, hence energy absorption, rather than the release causes collapse.
